Pursuit of ultimate purity, implying noble character and bright clarity.
Why it reads this way
致白 (Zhì Bái) is an editorial Chinese given name. 致 means to reach, to achieve. 白 means white; pure, unblemished; bright. The feel is refined, bright, noble, leaning neutral. It's a curated combination rather than a classical citation, so use it as a starting point and check the full name with a Chinese speaker.
Sound
The pinyin is Zhì Bái. Say it slowly, then at normal speed. If a tone feels difficult, practice the syllable alone before putting the full name together. A Chinese speaker will usually understand an imperfect tone in context, but the closer you get, the more natural the name feels.
How to introduce it
“My Chinese name is 致白. 致 — to reach, to achieve; 白 — white; pure, unblemished; bright.”
A common full-name pattern would be 李致白 (Lǐ Zhì Bái), using the surname 李. You can also use no surname at all.
